Uhhh, I beg to differ on this point. I was one of those who expected this defense to take a slight hit this season. By virtue of the fact that there was absolutely no effort by the front office to upgrade the defensive line, with the loss of Fred Smoot and the reliance on Walt Harris as a full-time starting corner, I was wrong only because they took more than a "slight hit." This defense is on the verge of falling below the 'average' mark.
